Temporal Bridges: Navigating Love through Time's Harms and Healing
In the depths of time, a force so strange,
That harms and heals, with equal range,
It shapes our memories, our very core,
And our relationships, forevermore.
My beloved, your scars, like a mirror,
Reflect the pain, the hurt, the fear,
But my eyes see beyond the surface,
To the beauty, the love, the purpose.
Time's relentless waves, they crash and break,
Tearing down what we build, for heaven's sake,
But with each wound, a scar, a mark,
Comes a chance to heal, to make a spark.
My beloved, time may bring its harms,
But together, we can weather any storms,
For in our love, there lies a power,
To withstand any test, any hour.
And as the years together will go by, we'll see,
How time has shaped us, you and me,
But in our hearts, we'll always know,
That our love, like time, will forever grow.
For time has a way of weaving its thread,
Through the tapestry of life, it does spread,
And in its wake, it leaves behind,
A story of love, of loss, of the divine.
My beloved, as we journey through time,
Let us hold each other, let us climb,
The highs and lows, the peaks and valleys,
For in each moment, love surely grows.
And when we look back, with wistful eyes,
At the memories of our love's sunrise,
We'll see the scars, the marks, the stains,
But we'll also see the beauty, the gains.
For time has a way of healing, too,
Of softening the edges, of making things new,
And in the end, when we're old and gray,
Our love will still be shining, like a bright sun ray.
So my beloved, let us cherish each day,
For time is fleeting, it does not stay,
And as we live, and laugh, and love,
Our story will be written, in the stars above.
And when our time on earth is done,
And we must say goodbye to everyone,
Our love will still endure, beyond the veil,
A testament to a bond that will never fail.
For time may be a cruel master at times,
But our love, like a precious gem, it shines,
Through the darkness, the pain, the strife,
It is the light that guides us through life.
So my beloved, as we stand here now,
Let us make this solemn vow,
To cherish each other, through our thick’s and thins,
To let our love be the bridge that brings us in.
And when we face the trials ahead,
And our hearts feel heavy, and our souls are dead,
Let us remember the beauty that we see,
In each other's eyes, in our love, in eternity.
